One sunny day, four high
school boys couldn’t resist the temptation to skip classes. The next morning
they explained to their teacher that they had missed her class because their
car had a flat tire. To their relief, she smiled and said, “Well, you missed a
quiz yesterday.” But then she added, “Take your seats and get out a pencil and
paper. The first question is: Which tire was flat?”
No one gets away with lying.
In Acts 5, Ananias and Sapphira thought they were lying only to Peter and the
other believers. But the apostle said to them, “You have not lied to men but to
God” (v. 4). If you always tell the truth you will never be trapped in a lie.[1]
